non attachment

From ~~~ Sri Ramana Maharshi - Who Am I?, 19

Q.:

What is non-attachment?

M.: 

As thoughts arise, 

destroying them utterly without any residue 

in the very place of their origin 

is non-attachment. 

Just as the pearl-diver ties a stone to his waist, 

sinks to the bottom of the sea 

and there takes the pearls, 

so each one of us 

should be endowed with non-attachment, 

dive within oneself 

and obtain the Self-Pearl.
